It is why many of us use social networks, to have the right to choose which content interests us the most. We have never needed to be told what to do on social networks before, so why is it that many feel it is necessary to tell us what actions we should be doing now?

If you write posts for your own blog or are a guest blogger, then you most likely have experienced times when inspiration is lost and the topics for writing have dwindled. When moments such as these occur, you tend to feel like there is nothing to write about or appealing enough to share with your online audience. This is where the photo-sharing site, Pinterest, can help in rekindling the spark for writing that is at times absent.

There have been plenty of talk online about Klout and some have built a case of how important it is to have a high Klout score, while others would argue that the score doesn’t really matter at all. These types of blog posts or Facebook status updates usually get the attention of many, for a lot of people use Klout and want to know more about it. It has become harder and harder to really know which stories we should actually follow and apply or not apply to our Klout score.

Living in a world dominated by technology and connected through social media has given us portals to reach people on the other side of the globe like never before. No matter if you are a business or personal brand, media has always been the key to reaching an audience, whether it be through radio, television, newspapers, billboards, or the internet, however, how you use media has evolved just as much as media itself.

Many businesses still feel that marketing needs to be solely about their brand, products, and services. Even with the introduction of social media, companies still have a hard time diversifying the content they share within their social networks. Businesses feel that sharing anything other than what they specifically offer won’t lead to sales, but this way of thinking can actually prevent companies from reaching potential customers and therefore, miss out on potential profits.
